Fly Fishing Gear, Tackle and Trout Flies for Lost Cove Creek North Carolina

Fly Line:You would probably want a 4 or 5 weight fly line for your dry fly fishing on Lost Cove Creek. You could get by using a 5 weight floating fly line for everything. Many anglers that fish heavy nymphs and streamers would want a 6 weight fly line but it would not be absolutely necessary.

Fly Rod:I would suggest a rod for the 4, 5 and 6 weight lines if you choose to use them. The rods should be nine feet in length in a medium to medium fast action.

Fly Reel:The reels for the four, five and six weight rods should have decent drags. They should be smooth. A disc drag that adjust in fine increments would be best.

Leaders:You should probably be using at least a 7 and half foot leader anywhere you fish Lost Cove Creek. There are situation where you would want to go up to 9 feet. I would suggest having them in sizes ranging from 1X for streamers, up to 6X for small dry flies and midges, in both the 7 and half and 9 foot lengths.

Tippet:You should have extra tippet in sizes ranging from 1X to 6X.

Waders:Waders are necessary for Lost Cove Creek unless the water is warm enough for you to wet wade.

Wading Boots:Much of the bottom in either gravel, sand or rock. You would not want cleats. Felt soles are the best. We are testing the new rubber soles out and have no comment about them yet.
